BUILDING NEW SOCIAL SPACES FOR ART is a symposium which will be held in Brooks Hall Commons from 12-4:30pm on Wednesday October 15, 2025. Lunch will be provided. This one-day symposium brings together Indigenous and non-Indigenous scholars from Australia, Papua New Guinea, South Africa and the United State. By examining different approaches to exhibition making, the symposium seeks to reframe curatorial practice as more than a “one-way” art and culture delivery system, but a vehicle for community building that creates new knowledge, amplifies access, and expands educational and economic opportunities.
BUILDING NEW SOCIAL SPACES FOR ART is convened by Lise Dobrin (Anthropology), Noel Lobley (Music) and Henry Skerritt (Art History) as part of the Collaborative Curation Lab at the Institute for the Humanities and Global Cultures at the University of Virginia. It is supported by the Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection of the University of Virginia and UVA Arts.
